Angsty/Whump Captain America fics

So, Captain America 2 made me actually like Steve Rogers! I have been reading a lot of Steve/Bucky fic but now want to branch out into Steve-centric fic. What I am looking for:

-Hurt/Comfort, Angst, Woobie, Just whump in general
-Anything focusing on how difficult Steve's past was (I have read a couple of good ones discussing how starved Steve felt/feels)
-Fics discussing Steve being awake and aware when he was frozen
-Fics discussing how the serum negatively effects Steve (always hungry, heals to fast, etc)
-I would prefer gen but pairings are okay as long as they are not the focus.
-If pairings, a focus on the fact that Steve grew up in a time where being homosexual was dangerous
-Happy endings (or at least ambiguous)
-NO CHARACTER DEATH OF STEVE

Any of the above would be awesome or any other stories you can recommend.

"burning out my sins until there's nothing but dust" by brandywine421, link:

is Steve/Tony, but focus isn't on their relationship. I loved it so much partly because part of it is about Steve's time into the ice, I'm not going to be more specific to not spoiling the story. I think it's a great story, for Steve lovers.

Most of Winterstar's stories are hurt!Steve or angst!Steve themed.
